Produce Exchange.
There is little better feeling in the local
produce market than there has been and
some indications exist of a more active bust
ness. Prices throughout have not changed
much and quotations are generally steady
and regular. AS we have before remarked,
butter is firm. the same as it has been for the
whole winter, with no special indications
either way. The creameries have been IN ex-
celent demand and are likely to so continue
The better qualities of diaries are also looking
somewhat better. Cheese steady. Onions
firm. Apples continue to be in good demand
and sell readily at quotations. Oranges aud
lemons are steady. OF fresh dressed poultry
